"I don't know how long the golden thread can last, but it's better to make a quick decision. Hurry up and find the entrance to the secret room."

After finishing speaking, she immediately turned around and ran into a girls' bathroom.

Damn, why do such embarrassing things always happen to her!

After finally waiting for the heat on her face to subside a little, she came out of the bathroom. Seeing that there was no one in the corridor, she went straight to the bathroom of the crying myrtle that the students had been rumoring for a long time.

Of course, now Myrtle has also been temporarily moved to a safe place near Hogwarts.

Kate searched for a long time by the water pipe above the bathroom sink, before she saw a small snake carved on the side of a copper faucet.

I tried turning the faucet again, but no water came out.

You are the one!

Kate was overjoyed, and immediately went to the corridor to send a signal, and when she turned around, she saw Dumbledore appearing behind her.

"Uh...Professor..." Startled by his sudden appearance, Kate subconsciously stroked her chest, and whispered, "Next time when Apparating, don't get so close."

Dumbledore raised his eyebrows slightly, and as soon as he turned around, he saw the old butler hurrying up the stairs and asked hastily, "Have you found the entrance yet?"

Kate nodded, took them into the bathroom together, and pointed to the faucet.

"There is a notch of a snake on it, it should be the mark carved by the heir of Slytherin, but I just tried it with a magic spell, but it can't be opened, maybe there is another way to open it."

She tried to guide them, and then asked: "Since this is a door that only the heirs of Slytherin can open, what is the special method that only their lineage can pass on?"

Dumbledore and the old butler looked at each other and said at the same time, "Parseltongue."

As the name suggests, Parseltongue is the ability to speak and communicate with snakes in the language of snakes, which can only be understood by a small number of Parseltongues.

"I've heard of this ability," Kate said in amazement. "Could it be that Slytherin himself is also a Parseltongue? No wonder they set the symbol of the academy as a snake!"

She looked at them expectantly: "Professor, Grandpa, do any of you speak Parseltongue?"

Anyway, she is not a descendant of Slytherin, and she has no interest in Parseltongue. Even though she knew she had such an ability, she didn't bother to learn it.

"I'll try." Dumbledore pulled her away solemnly, walked to the faucet, stared at the little snake with his blue eyes, and made a strange hiss.

Immediately, the water faucet emitted a burst of white light, and then began to spin rapidly, and the pool also moved and disappeared, revealing a very thick water pipe that could allow a person to get in.

Just as Kate was about to step forward, she was stopped by the old housekeeper: "You wait for us here."

"What?" She frowned unhappily, "Grandpa, the professor and I have already agreed to destroy the basilisk together!"

Dumbledore raised his hand in time to stop the quarrel they were about to start: "Rand, I promised Kate that I would be with her."

The old butler's old face froze, "Albus, you should know how dangerous the basilisk is."

"It's because of this that I have to take her to see it with my own eyes." Dumbledore looked at him deeply, until the old butler's slightly pale face slowly moved away, and then smiled.

Seeing this, Kate hurriedly followed him and jumped in one after another.

The old housekeeper sighed and had no choice but to slide down the passage.

Author's Note: Today's two chapters are 3k, so the total is 6k!In addition, if you open the reward again, wait until I finish these two chapters, it will probably be the day after tomorrow.

Chapter 36 The Last Deception

Quickly rushing down the pipe, the sticky feeling around made Kate very uncomfortable, so she simply closed her eyes.

She didn't jump up until she felt that her feet were empty, and when she was about to fall from Sugaguchi, she quickly adjusted her posture and landed successfully.

Wet floor tiles underfoot, and a dark stone tunnel in front of us, big enough for a person to stand in.

She saw Dumbledore lighting up the surroundings, and the old butler followed closely, and his old body was able to stand firmly.

"Come on, follow me," said Dumbledore in a low voice.

Kate nodded, grabbed his robe, and followed him step by step with the old butler.

They saw the bones of some small animals on the ground, and a gigantic slough, at least twenty feet long.

This made Kate a lot more happy than she was nervous, and cheerfully put the snake slough into her purse under the guard of two old wizards.

With such a long snake slough, in the next four or five years, she will not have to worry about the lack of this precious material to make potions.

They walked all the way, listening to each other's breathing, because Dumbledore was in front of her, she hardly felt any sense of fear, and soon came to the end of the tunnel.

At the end was a solid wall carved with two intertwined snakes with large, shining emeralds in their eyes.

Dumbledore cleared his throat and continued to let out a hoarse hiss.

Soon, the two snakes separated, the stone wall split from the middle, and slowly slid to the sides and disappeared.

The three of them entered together and came to one side of a long, dimly lit room.

Many stone pillars carved with coiled serpents soared to support the ceiling that melted into the darkness above.

So far, there is finally a bit of a weird atmosphere.

Kate pulled out her wand, put on her dark glasses, and followed them to the level of the last pair of stone pillars, when she saw a statue as tall as the room itself, clinging to the dark wall behind.

That's the statue of Slytherin. To be honest, it's not very good-looking. It may be that his appearance is not very good.

Kate ignored the statue, looked around, and found no trace of the basilisk after looking for a long time, and said helplessly: "It seems that only the descendants of Slytherin can awaken the basilisk."

The sleep quality of the basilisk is also very good, and the big movement just now didn't wake it up.

Dumbledore took out the diary from his arms and handed it to her: "I think among the three of us, maybe you are the only one who can make him wake up the basilisk."

The diary must be so angry that it almost ascended to heaven, so it can be stimulated to wake up the basilisk.

Kate shrugged helplessly, then looked at the two of them again, "Then you..."

Dumbledore directly used the Disillusionment Curse to hide him and the old butler, walked to the side of the stone pillar, and waited silently for her performance.

Well, two old men whose combined age is more than ten times her age are waiting to watch the show.

Kate was speechless for a while, and directly floated the diary, took out a quill from her purse, and wrote a line directly on the notebook.

"Is it a coincidence that Tom Marvolo Riddle (Tom Marvolo Riddle) and I am Lord Voldemort (I am Voldemort)?"

As the ink gradually disappeared, the diary suddenly trembled.

Without waiting for the diary to reveal the handwriting, Kate made an impatient look and tapped the paper with the tip of the pen, threatening it directly:

"I'm in the secret room now, if you are the Dark Lord, come out quickly, otherwise I have already killed a Dark Lord, and I don't mind killing another one."

A faint phantom emerged from the diary, and upon closer inspection, it was discovered that it was just a head.

Didn't absorb Ginny's vitality like in the original book, so can't even reveal the entity?

The majestic Voldemort's Horcrux is actually mixed up to this point...

"Who are you! You're not Catherine!" The face with eyebrows and eyes could barely be seen was not handsome, only the hoarse roar reminded Kate of someone in the movie who had no nose.

It turns out that this is what it looks like without absorbing life force.

Kate showed a slight dislike on her face: "Who said I'm not Catherine? Don't you have worse eyesight than the old Grindelwald?"

Xu Ying's movement was a little quieter, and the two holes in his face that could barely be called turned around, as if he was looking at her.

But the feeling of the brain being invaded clearly reminded Kate that this guy was using Legilimency.

She sneered, and directly played the part in the movie where Voldemort was rebounded by Lily's love protection spell.

"How? Now you should believe, who is the soul hidden in this girl's body?"

Xu Ying was startled by the memory she showed. He was just a Horcrux created from Voldemort's diary, and the memory he had also stayed on the day the Horcrux was made.

Afterwards, at most, after a few twists and turns, I knew the current situation from the mouths of different owners.

So it knew that its body had been defeated by the famous Harry Potter, but it didn't know how it lost.

"You...you were also there at the time? How is this possible!" It roared furiously, presumably it was to make Catherine and Harry's family into a party.

Kate calmly hugged her chest: "Idiot, use your incomplete brain to think about it, who else was alive at the scene at that time? And who am I most likely to be on?"

"Harry Potter? He survived my life-locking spell, so it was because of you!" Phantom let out another impotent and furious roar.

But Kate didn't answer it, just paced slowly: "It seems that your brain has not been sliced ​​with everything because of the soul slice, but the famous Dark Lord would choose this method for immortality, it's ridiculous. "

Without waiting for Xuying to answer, she turned around as if admiring herself: "See for yourself, my current body is much more perfect than Harry Potter's.

This is the real way to achieve eternal life, and you, who worked so hard to be made into a Horcrux, can only be confined to this ordinary diary, don't you think it's sad? "

Xu Ying even shook the entire diary a few times: "Eternal life? You also achieved eternal life?"

Kate stopped, and raised her index finger with contempt on her face: "Wrong! The soul has been cut, and the spirit is unstable. You can only hide your Horcrux forever. This kind of eternal life is just a punishment for torturing yourself." .

Like me, choosing other people's bodies at will, realizing eternal youth at any time, and enjoying other people's wealth and rights at any time, this is the joy of eternal life. "

She smiled, and hooked her fingers towards the diary: "Do you know why you felt that my brain was so easy before?

That's because I was still selecting my new body at that time, now you can help me appreciate it, how about using this little girl as a new container? "

Her acting skills seemed unreal, and the diary who had been provoked finally calmed down and became rational.

"So, you have lived for many years?" It will ask suspiciously, "Then tell me, when was you born?"

"In 1330," Kate replied without hesitation, "I was born in a noble family in France. My parents hired a tutor to teach me literature. Later, by chance, I got a manuscript on alchemy. "

This experience is copying Nicole Flamel's life experience. Anyway, now that she has half of Nicole Flamel's knowledge, even if Voldemort wants to test him, she can answer clearly.

Unsurprisingly, after answering several tricky and weird questions in a row, the attitude of the diary finally softened.

"You mean, there are books on alchemy that record how to live forever?" The tone of this question was mixed with a little unwillingness.

If the Catherine in front of me is really an old monster that has lived for hundreds of years, and she can still live so well, then why did she and her body spend so much effort to cut the soul?

Kate raised her eyebrows: "Of course I realized it myself. In fact, I didn't know what you were at the beginning until I investigated the murder case 50 years ago.

Later, after finding your name in the list of students that year, I realized all this.

Tom, it must have been 50 years since you were made into a Horcrux, right?

You just kept guarding the secret of the secret room, hiding in this diary for your dream of eternal life? "

The voice of the diary was a little impatient: "What do you want to say?"

"It's very simple. According to the previous transaction, you help me wake up the basilisk and drive Dumbledore out of power. I can consider helping you restore your soul and give you real longevity."

Her voice seemed to be whispering from hell, dangerous but full of temptation.

Longevity, this is Voldemort's lifelong pursuit, in order to achieve this goal, he did not hesitate to cut his soul into seven parts!

And the Horcrux, which exists as a fragment of its soul, naturally cannot escape this desire.

What's more, Kate hit the nail on the head for a long time.

As a horcrux, he was treated as an ordinary diary several times, but in the end he didn't even absorb the vitality of a stranger.

But now, the old monster in front of him is not only willing to help it destroy Dumbledore with the basilisk, but also help it realize its deeper wishes.

How does this make the diary not tempted?

"Okay!" After a while, Xu Ying agreed to her, "I will release the basilisk, and I hope you will keep your promise after it is done."

Kate tilted her head: "Why not?"

With her promise, Xu Ying immediately turned around, laughed ferociously, and then made a hissing sound.

Kate couldn't understand the language, but Dumbledore, who had been hiding behind the stone pillar, understood it.

It's saying: "Speak to me, Slytherin! The greatest of the Hogwarts Four!"

As soon as the words fell, the statue in front of them shook.

Chapter 37 Killing the Basilisk

Kate turned around and looked up at the statue, only to see the huge stone face of Slytherin move, and the black mouth slowly opened, widening and finally forming a huge black hole.

Something was moving inside the statue, gliding upwards with a rustling sound.

She subconsciously touched the sunglasses hidden in her pocket, and tried her best not to look at Dumbledore and the old butler behind the stone pillar.

It is not yet possible to reveal their location.

Soon, a gigantic object suddenly fell to the stone ground, making a hiss unique to snakes
